Abdul Hafeez Elected New SIO President

Adilabad / Hyderabad, TELANGANA / INDIA :

Amidst these chants, almost at 1 AM today, the Ameer-e-Jamaat and Patron of SIO Syed Sadatullah Husaini announced that the National President of Students Islamic Organisation of India (SIO) for the upcoming term 2025-26 would be Abdul Hafeez.

The announcement was made during the ongoing two-day All India ZAC (Zonal Advisory Council) Meet of the organisation held in Udupi, Karnataka on Friday and Saturday.

Many people were overjoyed, while one person burst into tears. That person was none other than the newly elected National President, Abdul Hafeez himself.

For the past 42 years, the Students Islamic Organisation of India (SIO) has been preparing students and youth to reconstruct society according to divine guidance. To ensure focused work in a specific direction, it is essential for any organisation to have a president.

This is why whenever the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ sent a group of people on a journey, he would appoint one among them as their leader (responsible person).

According to the constitution of the Students Islamic Organisation of India (SIO), it is essential for organisational office-bearers to possess the following qualities:

  1. They should be a member of the organisation but must not aspire for any position.
  2. They should excel in terms of religious knowledge, piety, understanding of matters, wisdom, sound judgment, adherence to the constitution, steadfastness and dedication in the path of Allah, and organisational abilities, making them overall the most suitable candidate within their electoral or appointed circle.

The SIO elections take place without any exit polls or opinion polls, and here, it is the winner who feels the greatest burden. In this system, it is not the opponents who cry, but the one who wins.

Abdul Hafeez has been engaged with SIO since his school days and was awarded with the Membership of SIO in 2012. Previously served as Regional president, City president of SIO Hyderabad, National Secretary of SIO of India, State President of SIO Telangana, and now Abdul Hafeez is newly elected President, SIO of India for the term 2025-26.

Abdul Hafeez is basically from Adilabad, later shifted to Hyderabad for education. He is a mechanical engineer by profession, graduated M.E. from Osmania University, and M.A. in Sociology from Nizam College.

May Allah give him more steadfastness, knowledge, wisdom, courage and patience to lead the students community of the beloved nation.
